Zlatan Ibrahimovic admits recent Chelsea-PSG rivalry would loose it's intensity with Mourinho gone

Chelsea vs Paris Saint Germain has become something of a modern day rivalry in the Champions League after both sides met in the last two seasons.
In 2014, the two clubs took to their official twitter handle to engage each other in a friendly banter. At the end of the tie, the French club came out the the sadder side.

On that day, Chelsea needed a last minute winner from Demba Ba to progress, sending the stadium and fans into raptors. Jose Morinho notoriously ran down the touchline to instruct his stars on how to hold on to their lead till the final whistle.

In 2015, during yet another tie which was equally poised after the first leg, both sides went into the second leg determined to progress as the Parisians sort to prove they are now one of the continent's elite sides. Despite going one man down in the first half after Ibrahimovic was controvesially shown the red card following a tackle on Oscar, the French champions, led by captain Thiago Silva, grabbed a late equalizer to go through on away goals - sending Chelsea hearts shattering at Stamford Bridge.

Ibrahimovic who played under Jose Mourihno at Inter Milan and praised the Portuguese ahead of Pep Guardiola who was also his boss at Barcelona, has admitted that the tie would lack that extra atmosphere that comes with Mourinho in the dugout.

Celebrating already?

'I think everybody will miss Mourinho in the game,'he said. 'But I believe he will be back soon in football, and if you are a little patient you will soon see him managing another club.
'Am I surprised with the sacking? I don't know. Everything depends on the results and that is the worst part of football.
'When you don't do well, you get punished, and it's more with the coaches. We don't get fired like the coaches do!'

Are you feeling the buzz as you did ahead of this fixture last time out?
